Chapter 33 Those who drown know water
Li Xuan walked across the Mudan River and continued to move forward along the riverside. When the breeze blew gently, his long hair fluttered with the wind, and his eyes were deeper and brighter.
I don't know what's going on, as Li Xuan's perception of water becomes deeper and deeper, and the cultivation of the exercises becomes faster and faster, his hair unconsciously accelerates the growth rate.
Especially when the river had an epiphany just now, although the time was less than an hour, the hair grew nearly a meter. In addition, what he originally grew out of was actually draped down to the waist, black and moist, and draped down like a stream of water.
This kind of long hair, if any girl sees it, she will definitely be envious. Especially now, there are advertisements for shampoo all over the sky, if there is a man with long black and moist hair to advertise, he will definitely compare those beautiful stars, the effect will definitely be very good, the advertisement will definitely be very popular, and the shampoo will definitely sell out of stock.
It's just that in Li Xuan's era, girls were all braided, and they didn't wear a meter to grow their hair at all. And men, it is impossible to have long hair, which will be scolded to death by the family.
Where is like now, many men have long hair and ponytails, and that is called artistic youth. And girls cut their hair short and shaved their heads, which is called personality. If you are far away, you will not be able to distinguish between men and women. If you go to a public toilet, you'll be scared to think you're going to the wrong door.
Just because of Li Xuan's long hair, those fishermen and fishermen couldn't tell the difference. And from a distance, Li Xuan is obviously a man in terms of body type. This made these people believe that Li Xuan was an immortal, because it was impossible for a man to have such long hair at that time, only the legendary male immortal had long hair.
And Li Xuan, the surprise of these people is not taken seriously at all. I didn't know that my act of walking across the river actually evolved into a fairy legend later. At that time, Li Xuan had not yet cultivated to the realm of unpredictable prophets and predicting the future.
In this way, Li Xuan continued to walk along the riverside. Under the blowing of the river breeze, Li Xuan's clothes dried quickly, but a pair of cloth shoes were wet and uncomfortable when worn on his feet.
Li Xuan simply took off his shoes and walked barefoot by the river. There are stones in some places along the Mudan River, grass in some places, and gravel in some places, but no matter where he goes, Li Xuan's feet are unscathed.
On the contrary, because of his bare feet, Li Xuan's contact with water is closer, and his perception of water is more profound. Moving forward in the understanding, Li Xuan has unconsciously walked to the south bank of the riverside in Mudan City.
At that time, the development of Mudan City was still limited to the north bank of the river, the south bank was mostly barren grass beach, rarely visited, only a bridge not far upstream connected the north and south, leading to Ning County in the south.
During the summer vacation, it is the peak season for swimming. The weather on these two days was particularly hot, and only by the river did there be a slight cool breeze. At this time, there are many people swimming in the river, and there are more people by the river, and there are many children playing in the shallow water.
Li Xuan stopped by the river, remembering that at this time last year, he was squatting on the north bank of the river, waiting to save people and accumulate merits, repair the Xuanhuang Linglong Pagoda of Heaven and Earth, and speed up the practice of exercises.
Thinking of the scene at that time, Li Xuan not only smiled lightly, only a year apart, Li Xuan's thoughts had matured a little. At that time, the act of squatting by the river to save people was simply childish and ridiculous.
Fortunately, I was lucky at the time, and I really saved a few people. Otherwise, it would be a real waste of effort.
Looking at the river bridge not far upstream, he remembered that he had prevented a pair of young lovers from committing suicide by throwing themselves into the water last year, especially the red silk scarf wrapped between their hands. Now he feels both naïve for the idea of these two people throwing themselves into the river, and admires the loyal love of these two people.
couldn't help but think of her beautiful table mate Zhao Bing, she often wore a red silk scarf, thinking, thinking, thinking about it, she was actually stupid.
By the way, I patronized the cultivation of the exercises, and I didn't tell Zhao Bing when I was away from home, how can I explain this time. Li Xuan shook his head, it seemed that he would have to buy a few more gifts when he went back. Don't think about that anymore. Now that you have come out, let's practice the exercises first.
Through this period of practice, Li Xuan's understanding of merit has deepened, and he no longer needs to deliberately seek opportunities to save and help others, but to do good deeds and accumulate good deeds from the heart and naturally.
Li Xuan felt the intimacy between people and water, and the tolerance of water and people by the river. At the water's edge, Li Xuan's perception could already spread far with the current.
When Li Xuan was quietly feeling, he suddenly found that a person who was swimming in the river had a condition, it should be a calf cramp, and he was about to call for help, but he was poured into his mouth by the river water, and he didn't drink it at all, and the person began to sink down.
Li Xuan put his hand into the river and secretly carried the Xuanhuang merit trick, only to see a stream of water rushing straight towards the person who was about to drown, gently supporting the person's waist and legs, making the person surface.
The man who was about to drown took advantage of this to relieve his calf cramps, and hurriedly swam to the shore. When he reached the shore, the man looked back into the river and found nothing.
"Could it be that the gods have appeared, or the fish fairies in the water have saved themselves, why are they being held up by a stream of water?"
When his gaze turned to the other side of the river, he saw a man with waist-high long hair walking into the distance, and under the blowing of the river wind, the long hair flew and disappeared from sight in a short time.
Later, after hearing the story of a long-haired fairy wading through the water at the confluence of the Yushu River and the Mudan River, he was convinced that the person who saved him that day must be the fairy, and became a loyal supporter of this myth and legend.
He specially offered a portrait of a god at home, and burned incense to worship on the first and fifteenth days of the new year. As for the portraits of the gods, of course, he found someone to paint them according to his own imagination, mainly because the hair had to fly waist-high.
He also told his relatives and friends around him that he had been rescued by the gods, and when he saw that he was about to sink into the river, he was saved by the gods. As long as anyone says he doesn't believe it, he will definitely be anxious with someone.
Through the perception of water, Li Xuan has become more and more proficient in the practice of "goodness is like water", and he also has a certain ability to control water. Just like just now, when rescuing the person who was about to drown, he no longer needed to swim over by himself, and he completed the rescue work by controlling the flow of water from a distance of dozens of meters. This is one of the results of Li Xuan's cultivation of the exercises.
For saving people, Li Xuan just did it casually, naturally and naturally, which is like the natural flow of heaven, without asking anyone to know or reciprocate. Seeing that person was about to sink into the water, Li Xuan naturally completed the action of controlling the flow of water and saving people.
Through this rescue, Li Xuan's understanding of water is deeper. Water can both nourish and drown humans.
The ancients said: The good rider falls on the horse, the good water drowns, the good drinker gets drunk, and the good fighter dies to kill.
Those who drown know how to water. If people are self-confident and neglectful, and their minds are light and unsteady, the consequences will inevitably fail, that is, carelessness. If a person takes a risk because of his own strength, spares no effort, overfills, and has the slightest disturbance, unexpected fluctuations will occur. Even a single straw can crush a powerful camel.
To be a man often needs to be modest and cautious, not arrogant, not frivolous, not frivolous, not light and evil, and always follow the right path. Otherwise, we must have spare strength to prevent accidents, and we must not leave anything to chance.
In particular, when people do risky things, they must not forget the risks and dangers, and they must not be arrogant and self-inflated, once they exceed the boundaries of their own ability, or the risks exceed the psychological estimate, there must be the risk of falling off the cliff or the catastrophe of extinction!
